    What is your Favorite block to build with out of the above list and why do you like to build with it.

    I personally like to build with green and lime stained clay with a combination of wood planks and logs... I choose this because its modernish and rustic at the same time and can be used for many different types of building styles.

    well even though some of the clay is not a good color, i use it mostly cuz i like the texture of it and it fits most of my builds very well.

    Mossy Stone/Mossy Cobble. I love natury vibes and nature themed builds and mossy blocks are oh so lovely in ruin/cave/foresty gardens for best rainy mood places to afk in.

    I loooove stone brick! I can make it go with almost anything, and you can make it fit with any style. Want something fancy, use it. Want something medieval, use it. Want old, breaking ruins, use it.

    Mine would be wood planks and/or wood logs. To me their a great universal building block and fit just about anything. It's expecially apparent to me when it's in a well made resource pack. My favourite block in general would be Bedrock.

    That poll needs Obsidian in its life.

    Obsidian is the block that is dark and solid at the same time, while still having a certain mystic feel to it. It's created by water and lava, two opposing forces. It's the Yin&Yang of this game.

    I think Obsidian has been my favorite block ever since i first found out about its existence. It's fabulous, it's magnificent, it's magical.

    Oak logs...they make builds look more sturdy and supported, and are a good neutral color that can be paired with most colors. Also, I think the caps on them look better and warmer than any of the other logs.

    I like them all - find any block (diamond ore for ex) and realize it looks okay on its own. Take a really close look and find all the hues, all the bright and dark colors in that block. Set up a palette to match it, and try building with that. You'd be surprised at the results that come from stealing the colors the texture artists have used (I'm talking default of course).

    I'm a big fan of stone bricks and the new diorite, granite and andesite blocks. They make for great victorian building blocks.

    Sponge... because it's obviously the best thing since sliced bread! Although... wood looks quite good too...

    Well I'm using a wood planks/log and stone combination for mostly of my builds as they compliment with eachother in color and texture. This block palette is best for medievall/nordic and steampunk (That's what I personally think :D).
    *This post totaly isn't just cr@p as my other posts as you guys say they are*
